The main aims of this Association are:
To inform the residents of the Autonomous Basque Community about the risks, threats, false rumors and serious emergency situations that may arise in the future or that have already happened through the social networks and Internet. For the purpose, we support the different institutions competent in the field of civic protection and emergencies and disseminate official information, verified and truthful.
We want to spread the culture of self-protection and security by showing the citizenry guidelines for behavior that will help in making proper decisions in case of emergencies, thus increasing community resiliency.
We also monitor and explain the significant risks and threats that arise the world over.
